For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

If we are not
Being filled
More and more
With divine
Love, mercy,
Forgiveness and grace
From the fountain
Of living waters
Are we really
Truly,
Authentically,
Believably,
Living out our
Majestic faith?

That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

What say we to Christ each day
When He gently, lovingly, imploringly, delightfully
Asks us to fellowship with Him,
To study Him,
To read His illuminative
Life giving Holy words
Of love,joy,and peace,
To Pray
To delight in His incomparable company.
What say we to Christ each day?

What say we to Christ each day
When we hear the Spirit’s
Lovely, gentle call
To come
Fellowship,
Rest,
Converse,
Enjoy being
With The God of all Eternity!

Blessed [is] the nation whose God [is] the LORD; [and] the people [whom] he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

Mighty empires crumble,
Fall,
And flail
When they turn away from
The living,risen Christ
As their foundation
And worship and deify self
As the only way of redemption.

For Jesus Christ alone,
God of glory,
Maker of Heaven and earth,
Is the only way, the truth and the life.
Jesus Christ Himself is the good news.

Faith in Christ alone brings glorious salvation.
The tragic demonic deification of self
Has always
Will always
Destroy the soul,
The nation,
The people
Who choose self deification
Over Christ’s salvation.

So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it.

What if today
We choose not only to
Share a verse
But live out loud
That verse in our very lives
Sincerely,
Genuinely,
Lovingly,
Compassionately,
Authentically,
And thereby another
Precious soul’s name
Is written in the Lamb’s
Book of eternal life in Heaven?
What if today?

Whose adorning let it not be that outward [adorning] of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

But [let it be] the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, [even the ornament] of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

When souls, and hearts, and minds
Are clothed with the inward adornment
Of the majestic robes of righteousness divine
Because of the blessed hill of Calvary,
Inconsequential then becomes
The God given blessings of our
Earthly array of colorful threads.

All the others care only for themselves and not for what matters to Jesus Christ.

Philippians 2:33 (KJV)

For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ’s.

And when the word of God
Becomes our true delight.
And prayer becomes the earthly instrument
To receive the Heavenly breath we need.
And Christ becomes our everything
And His light,
His life,
His strength,
His glory,
Becomes the Bread of Life
That sustains our every need.

It is at this very moment
That we become
More and More like Christ
And less like self.

For rather than seeking the earthly, crumbling, tumbling
Kingdom of self deification and selfish ambition,
We at this moment are seeking the divine interests
Of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
And furthering the eternal, immortal,
Kingdom of un-ending celestial beauty and light
That can never be shaken.

For our Triune God,
The God of Jacob,
Isaac,
Abraham,
Moses,
David,
The prophets,
The God of all people
Of all nations,
Is our unbreakable,
Unconquerable,
Foundation
From Now
Until eternity!

Genesis 49:24 a (KJV)
But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty [God] of Jacob;

And so our
Mighty,
Omnipotent,
God of Jacob,
Our Loving Heavenly Father,
Our Savior,
And the precious Holy Spirit,
Makes our hands strong.
For the King of Kings Himself,
Our triune God stoops down
From His throne room in Heaven
And lays His hands
Upon the weakened hands
Of His weary, earthly lambs
There-bye giving His earthly clay the
Miraculous redemptive, transformative gift
Of Becoming His hands
In a land that
Desperately needs to see
Christ gloriously living within.

And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.

And when we just
Behold our Savior,
Quietly,
And humbly,
By just sitting
At his nail pierced feet
And personally
Get to know Divinity,
Who is the author of infinity,
We cannot but
Love,
Honor.
Worship,
Adore,
And obey Christ,
The Word made manifest in the flesh,
More and more!!

Thus saith the LORD unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle [is] not yours, but God’s.

So saith the victorious
Warrior and victor of all
Battles and wars,
Our Savior, Jesus Christ
“Child of grace
The Battle is not yours,
It’s mine.
Just rest,receive, and abide
In Me
While I fight for you.
For you are
Eternally,
Joyously,
Victoriously,
Royally,
Triumphantly
Mine
And I will set you free
And give you the victory.”

Touch Lives Forever! As.."Love does not delight itself in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preserves. I Cor 13: 6,7 And now these three remain Faith, Hope and Love but the greatest of these is Love!"
